Mauricio Pochettino has said that Tottenham Hotspur can replace Harry Kane from within the team.

The English striker is out for one month with an injury he picked up against Manchester United.

Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has said that they can replace Harry Kane from within the team and don’t need any new signing to be done in January. The England skipper has been ruled out of action for the next one month with an injury he picked up in the later stages of the match against Manchester United, which Spurs lost by 0-1 at Wembley.

Speaking to the media, the Argentine gaffer said, “If we want to find a player similar to him I think we are going to make a mistake, because to find another Harry Kane is impossible — we are talking about the one of the best three, four, five best strikers in the world.”

He added, “If we don’t sign players or we are not going to sign a striker, that is not going to be a gamble. It is not going to be a risk. We have players that can cope when Harry Kane is not available.”

He concluded, “You can play Llorente, you can play Dele Alli, you can play Lamela, you can play Kaziah Sterling, Troy Parrett, I don’t know … you can play many, many players. It’s not that you have to play with one specific striker.”
